Fortnite Gets Avengers: Infinity War Crossover

The mode sees the Infinity Gauntlet dropped onto a random position on the map shortly after the solo round begins. Picking up the Gauntlet changes you into Thanos and warps you into the air.

After skydiving down on the map again, Thanos has several unique abilities. His jump is enormous, which he can combine with a ground pound punch. He can also use the power stone to fire a purple beam.

Thanos' health is also boosted from 100 to 700 - but you're marked on the compass for every other player. Die as Thanos and the Gauntlet drops to the floor for another player to use and start the cycle anew.

EW has revealed the Infinity Gauntlet Limited Time Mashup mode for Fortnite: Battle Royale. The Avengers: Infinity War crossover will see the gauntlet actually appearing on the map, and the person who obtains it will transform into Thanos — including all of his powers.

The Fortnite Twitter account revealed this picture of the Avengers: Infinity War crossover, adding that "the battle begins tomorrow."

The crossover actually came about because Avengers: Infinity War directors Joe and Anthony Russo are Fortnite fans. They reportedly reached out to Epic Games worldwide creative director Donald Mustard while finishing up the film.

"Over the past few months, while we were editing Infinity War, we’d take breaks to hop on and get in a few games," Joe Russo told EW. "And then we started thinking, 'How cool would it be to have some kind of Avengers-Fortnite mashup?' So we stalked Donald [Mustard]."
